About the role

Crewny is seeking a Shipwright to lead the maintenance, preservation, and restoration of historic wooden vessels in New York City. The role requires hands-on carpentry, attention to safety, and a collaborative approach to meet tight deadlines. The ideal candidate has 5+ years in ship/boat maintenance, with strong skills in timber joinery, caulking, and traditional painting. On-site work in a fast-paced hospitality-heritage environment offers growth and cross-trades opportunities.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
